What are Cross-Border Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A)?

Cross-border M&A, short for “Cross-border Mergers and Acquisitions”, refers to the practice of buying or selling companies that involve entities located in different countries or regions. In the context of corporate finance, cross-border M&A typically entails companies or investors from one country acquiring or merging with businesses from another country.

Cross-border M&A has become increasingly common in today’s business environment. This strategic approach acknowledges the advantages of looking beyond national boundaries when considering opportunities for acquiring or divesting companies.

Cross-border M&A offers various benefits, such as access to a broader range of potential targets, increased market presence, synergy creation, diversification of business operations, and the potential for cost savings and growth.

 

How is the M&A process structured?

The M&A process is structured as follows:

1. 1. Strategy & Project Definition: In this initial phase, the target is defined, and strategic alignment is assessed.
   2. Mapping & Searching: An extensive market exploration identifies potential targets that align with the defined objectives.
   3. Contacting Potential Targets: Initiating discreet, professional contact with the target companies. Building initial rapport and assessing interest is the focus of this stage.
   4. Negotiating an Offer: In this stage, we negotiate terms of the letter of intent (LOI) to find common ground and mutually beneficial terms.
   5. Due Diligence: A comprehensive review scrutinizes the target covering financials, operations, legal aspects, and more to uncover potential issues.
   6. Closing: The finalization of the process and closing formally concludes the transaction. It involves the legal and financial transfer of ownership.
